Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Anything you could want at anytime. You don't go hungry or thirsty on this cruise. You have the same waiter/waitress every night in the restaraunt so they become very much a part of yoru family and they even have your drinks ready at your table when you arrive at your scheduled time!

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Always something to do! Watching the big screen movie on Lido Deck (outside) in the evenings were great!!!

Children's Programs

Wonderful, my daughter had so much fun she wanted to spend more time there then she wanted to spend with us! We had to make her come to dinner with us (they could eat with the camp friends on certain nights). The staff remembered her name and always made her feel welcome. They opened at 8 am and closed at 9 pm for free camp, they also had evening activities (9 pm - 3 am) for a VERY reasonable cost!!!
